Terrazzo Workshop: Coasters / Dishes

I absolutely recommend this Terrazzo workshop - our teacher was super friendly, and not only taught us the essentials, but helped us exercise some extra creativity and run with our ideas. There was plenty of different materials to work with, and the length of the workshop (as well as the venue) was just right. I can’t wait to practice my newfound Terrazzo skills at home with the help of our take + more

Joanne Yu

Introductory Wheel Throwing Class

What a fun way to celebrate our anniversary! The class size is very small so you get a lot of individual attention from the instructor, which is great for beginners like us. There’s a lot of information to take in, but our instructor Noy broke down the steps and made it easy and interesting to follow. The location is a bit tricky to find as the driveway could easily be missed, so it’d be good to + more

Mariam Smith

Health benefits of pottery

Pottery is one of the most therapeutic crafts out there as it draws on a mix of mental, emotional and kinaesthetic brain functions. Not only can it improve your focus, concentration and give you a sense of creative accomplishment, but it has a meditative element to it. ClassBento potter Leanne Berelowitz shared with us that when she’s working on the pottery wheel all other thoughts drop out of her head and she is drawn into its meditative rhythm.
